Innocent until proven guilty is a value we should instill in children. Reactionary bullshit should be discouraged in children and you should better know better

>In 1938, a 23-year-old Sinatra found himself in just such a situation, and he was officially arrested and booked for Seduction. The charge was eventually dropped when it was discovered that the supposedly single woman was in fact married. Later that year, armed with this new information, the original charge was revised slightly, and Sinatra was again arrested, this time for Adultery.

>A bond was set for Sinatra, which he promptly paid, and he was released. The Adultery charge was later dropped and in total, he spent only a few hours in jail as a result of the situation.

I don’t want my children to grow up to be adulterous. I’ll stick with Joey bishop as their role model thank you very much

so innocent until proven guilty means nothing to you? Maybe try getting some American values, they're pretty great and the republic will be destroyed when a significant amount of the population abandons them

Can you name one value passed down to us from the founding fathers which you possess? Because neither of the things you mentioned are that

George Washington was a troop

New_Stats OP t1_ixju6d1 wrote

He was the general. He's the most highly decorated general in our history, because we just keep giving him more awards every time a living general gets too many stars. It'd be cool if you knew that or read literally anything he wrote. It'll help you act like an actual American and not a reactionary, because the founders' hated reactionaries. They valued logic and reason; they were men of the enlightenment. something this country is abandoning at breakneck speed

Here, pick something and read it. It will enlighten you

The entire revolution was a bunch of entitled colonizers which didn’t want to pay their fair share of taxes. Read a history book. They weren’t good people. Worse role models than Frank Sinatra.

I've read quite a few history books. And I'm happy to inform you that Jefferson would wholeheartedly agree with you, as he called himself a "barbarous ancestor" to those of us who would live centuries after him.

They weren't infallible, they weren't without massive flaws, just like all humans. They made huge mistakes but to look at only that, without looking at all they accomplished, all the good they did, is just as unreasonable as fetishizing them

What did they accomplish? They created a nation built on Indian land, defended by British soldiers and money with slaves as a bonus

Satire becomes more sad than funny when you start to believe the more outrageous shit for even half a second.

I hate the world.

To be fair I though this would be deleted pretty quickly. I didn’t know I’d have to keep up the satire for more than one comment

Sadly, the difference between satire and people's real opinions is sometimes hard to discern these days.

“What kind of role model is he for children”. It was one message ago why do you need to be reminded
